Know The Difference

At Tannery & Company, we don’t compete on being the cheapest. We compete on being the best—and here’s why that matters:


30+ Year Lifespan

Our full-grain hair-on cowhides are tanned to last decades, not months. That means fewer returns, fewer replacements, and a better customer experience.


Natural Luxury

Each hide is like a snowflake—rare, beautiful, and never duplicated. Only our Full-Grain Hides are breathable, naturally flame-retardant, and stylish enough to be featured in top design magazines.


Designer-Grade Performance

Our hides resist stains, have a natural non-slip backing, and withstand 400 lbs of pressure per square inch. Lower-quality hides curl, crack, or degrade in high-traffic spaces.  The secret is in our proprietary processes to preserve more fat liquor in our hides. This not only results in more durable hides but also in softer more beautiful hides.


Sustainably Sourced

No animals are harvested for our hides. They’re a byproduct of the meat industry and tanned in eco-conscious facilities where 100% of water is reused, and all leather waste becomes organic fertilizer.


Trade-Only. No Mass Market. 

We serve the design trade exclusively—our pricing, patterns, and quality aren’t diluted across online mass-market platforms. Your reputation stays protected.


Let’s elevate your offering—one extraordinary hide at a time.

 

In a market flooded with chemically processed leather, we’re proud to offer something different — and better. Our organic tanned cowhides are crafted using time-honored, environmentally responsible methods that honor the natural beauty of leather without compromising the planet or your standards.

 

🌿 What Is Organic Tanning?



Unlike conventional leather that relies on toxic chromium salts and heavy industrial chemicals, our hides are tanned using plant-based tannins sourced from natural materials like oak bark, mimosa, and quebracho wood. This creates a leather that’s not only safe and sustainable but also biodegradable and rich with character.

 

🌎 Waste-Free and Water-Wise

 

We go a step further.

  • 100% of our solid tanning waste is transformed into organic fertilizer, feeding soil instead of landfills.
  • Our liquid effluents are fully recycled back into our tanning process — drastically reducing water use and preventing contamination.

 

This isn’t just eco-friendly — it’s circular design in action.
